I recently picked up the second season of the "Ali G Show," which features a faux English "gangsta" who's famous for flashing innane gang signs and giving outrageous interviews with officials and politicians who think he's legit.

In the first episode, Ali G visits some dupes at an ATF facility training dogs. It's pretty hilarious. At one point the agent is trying very hard to explain why they can't use dolphins instead of dogs. :D
 
Yeah, it's a pretty funny little act he does. I think by far the funniest part of his act is the revelation that "Ali G" is actually short for "Alistair Leslie Graham." :D
 
His debate with Andy Rooney over who was speaking English was pretty funny too. His Borat Goes to America skits are hilarious too, especially if you find the one about him and the new agers.

He does the voice of the king of the small animals in the animated movie, "Madagascar." Hysterically funny.
 
Sacha Cohen is freakin hilarious. Ali G is probably the best character, but Boris (or whatever the russian-like guy is called) is also very funny. How he does that without laughing is beyond me. He really gets his interviewees sucked in hook, line, & sinker.

I transcribed the scene, it was from season 2 episode 1.



ali: why do yous use canines, wouldn't it be betta to use dogs
atf: dog is just a slang term for canine
ali: well do yous use mainly dogs or mainly canines
atf: in the us dog and canine are used interchangeably
ali: aiyat, for real.
atf: most of the dogs are black ...
ali: is that a bit racialist using mainly black dogs
atf: it just has to do with the breed
ali: but ain't it a bit racialist saying alright lets get the brothers to go in and find the bombs
atf; it has nothing to do with that

ali: why do you use dogs to decide where the bombs is? why don't use use a more intelligent animal like a dolphin?
atf:..... um, it would be quite difficult to have a fish tank on a cart
ali: but I don't know if you know this but dolphins ain't fish, they's like us, they is mammaries
atf: correct, but they have to get back to a water source every now and again... more more comlicated than using a dog, then again I don't know how good their sense of smell is. Dogs have an incredibly powerful sense of smell.
ali: then why do they stick their noses so close to each others batty?
atf: dogs...they give out scents... to let other dogs know once up
ali: cause I once smelled a dogs arsh and it was 'orrible. why does they do it?
atf: different perception, something that's unpleasant to you might not be unpleasant to them
ali: have you ever smelled a dogs arsh?
atf: can't say I have

ali: When they find the bomb, how long does it take the dog to defuse it?
atf: the dog has nothing to do with that. we only train the dogs to locate a suspicious item
ali: for real, where do you get the dogs from
atf; we get them from a guide dog agency.
ali: does you interview the dog or do you have one of the more senior dogs do it.
atf: usually the trainers do that.
ali: why don't you have one of the dogs that have been here for like years interview them they will know whether they is good or bad.
atf: right right, are dogs are busy out looking for explosives, they don't have the time to interview.

ali: so can these dogs smell drugs?
atf: no
ali (under his breath): thank god.
atf: not at all.
ali: ya, respect.
atf: you're safe
ali <gets offended>: what? why?
atf: you said 'thank god'
ali: I said that out loud?
atf: ya
ali: I don't 'ave anyting on me.
atf: you're all set.

The next scene is great too. He plays bruno the gay fashion interviewer and he interviews a pastor that converts gays... man that was funny. He says the most offensive things to the pastor but the pastor stays pretty cool about it.
